Friday Night Fights--Marble Style!!

Admission: it's been a crappy, hellacious week. And in all honesty, I didn't spend my usual 500-600 hours scouring my collection for this week's Friday Night Fights.

But you know what? This made me laugh, and given my week, that's enough.

As is his wont, Archie Andrews hops aboard a decades-old fad:

The idea of Archie being nostalgic is ironic on about 7 different levels...but at least Archie can talk the lingo:

Of course, Archie is still Archie, so...

And double of course:


GYMKATA!!!!!

That...was awesome. And we're just beginning...



HI-KEEBA!!!!!

Accidental or not, that was slamming.

And, inevitably...





Oh, Archie, how did you ever survive those lynchings??

Spacebooger appreciates the slapstick buffoonery of those Riverdale kids...

Childhood hobbies cause havoc in Archie's Pals 'N' Gals #82 (1973). Sadly, GCD has no credits available for this issue, and I'm not enough of an Archie expert to safely hazard a guess. Sorry.


Now is the time for you to go and vote, but not for my fight. Why? Lazy, substandard in every way. Vote for someone else this week...

I'm sorry, I fully intended to vote for Archie but once I got there I couldn't vote against Nova. I actually thought your pick was brilliant this week since Midge was always the hot one but I just couldn't. If it had been ANY other selection I would have gone with you. I felt bad so an admission of guilt was in order.

Apologies are never necessary for voting your true feelings, Dan.
